Discriminatory Job Ad on SEEK

I thought this is considered illegal. Seems like Australia is going backwards.

https://www.seek.com.au/job/76233184?tracking=SHR-WEB-Shared…

Only accepting applicants who identify as female or non binary.

I've reported this job ad to Seek on grounds of discrimination.

      It does say they are excited to invite female and non binary.

      The implication is clear. Ie. they are not inviting men to apply.

    • If you search for it on seek, the ad summary listed while scrolling through other ads implicitly states females and non-binary only.

  • Imagine the looks and whispers on day one, forever the "special" kid.

    Setting a precedent for bypassing laws that actually help provide the equality that everyone wanted in the first place, what a disgrace by all parties involved.

    • Imagine caring that they hired a women even though the requirements are that she is experienced.

      You will bring significant leadership experience and exposure to working within a manufacturing or heavy industry environment. Your dedication to safety combined with an ability to lead, motivate and develop others will support your success in this role.
      You will also bring:
      *tertiary engineering qualification or extensive trades maintenance experience
      *good communication and influencing skills to deliver outcomes through others
      *demonstrated understanding of manufacturing processes (e.g. Maintenance Management Systems, Maintenance Strategies and Overall Equipment Effectiveness)
      *a proven ability to make decisions with consideration to business commercial interests
      *a natural curiosity to keep learning about advancements in maintenance practices and technologies

    At some point, they're going to have to run the productivity numbers on their DEI hires (and 457 nepotism).
    The numbers won't be pretty, and ESG dollars won't make up for the total collapse of a hardfought company
